For today’s reflection, I came across another Francis Chan video that I think you will enjoy. In this one, he talks about how much we underestimate God. We have no real reference point to know God’s true self, power, and potential. Hope you enjoy it. Tomorrow we will return to our read and finish up 2 Chronicles.

For our reflection post this week I wanted to share a short and interesting video with a great message for us all. As most of you know, I am a big fan of Francis Chan. He is that rare individual who practices exactly what he preaches. I hope you enjoy the video. We will be back to our reading on Thursday.

Today, I did not have a reflection to share. Hopefully, if you are behind in reading, these last three days gave you an opportunity to catch up. Tomorrow we will resume our regular reading schedule. See you then!

Today’s reflection post comes from a Christian movie called “Facing the Giants”. The movie is a bit rough, but the message is very good. The clip below is from a very powerful scene showing the power of our potential. We tend to hold ourselves back to what we think our potential is instead of what we are really capable of accomplishing. God created us to accomplish greatness for His glory. He did not create us to accept mediocrity. Push to find your greatness through God’s power.

For the next three days, we are going to take a little break from reading. I’ll try to have and interesting video or thought to share, so come back each day to check it out. We will resume our reading plan on Thursday, August 1st.
For today, I thought I would share this simple picture, which reminds me no matter what, God is always with me.

For today’s reflection, I though I would share this simple quote by arguably the greatest basketball player of all time. We as believers spend too much time striving for perfection. It is not in those pursuits that God’s power can be used the most. It is in our realization that we can’t do it without Him. We are going to miss shots in life. But when we do, let us remember that God never misses if we allow Him to be in control.
I’ve missed more than 9000 shots in my career. I’ve lost almost 300 games. 26 times I’ve been trusted to take the game winning shot and missed. I’ve failed over and over and over again in my life. And that is why I succeed. –Michael Jordan

I love listening to Andy Stanley. He is one of those people who can take a complex subject and make is seem simple. I am sharing this video because of the simple message of Grace he shares. The basic message in this video is that Law is not the opposite of Grace, Law is the extension of Grace. God provided His law to keep us safe, not to imprison us through His rules. I hope you enjoy this quick message. (Please ignore the final few minutes of the video where it talks about donations for a free copy of the book)

We need to take time to stop and think. There is so much more to life than just going through the motions. This 15 minute video helped me realize I don’t always look at life through the proper lens. Hope you enjoy it.

I know most people have heard of the Duck Dynasty show. I love the show for several reasons. First, because it is entertaining. Second, because they are unafraid to share their lives as believers in a time when being called a “Christian” is not very popular. This short video shows how doing the right thing in the eyes of God is what is important.

Baptisms are one of my favorite things to witness in another believer’s life because they are the outward expression of what God is already doing inside of a person’s heart, mind, and spirit. I came across this short Hillsong NYC video they produced about their baptisms. The reason why I love this video is because it is so genuine. When baptism is done in an authentic way, it is simple and yet so powerful. I hope this video moves you the way it moved me.
